Obituary
David Joseph Gillespie of Ponce Inlet, passed away on February 10th at the age of 62 in the Halifax Hospice Care Center after a lengthy illness.
Born in Paisley, Scotland his sense of adventure took him to Melbourne, Australia and Greensboro, North Carolina, before settling in Florida. David was a mechanical engineer by trade and an international businessman for many years. His love of friends and fun inspired him to become involved with Murphy’s Arms Pub in Orlando where he made many lasting friendships.
David had a quick wit and charismatic personality and enjoyed a round of golf, a day at the beach, a night at the pub, a spontaneous trip, and a football game equally.
Left to cherish his memory are his daughters Louise, Paulene and Alison, their mother Ann, his grandaughters Courtney and Leeanna, his sisters Kathleen and Jan, brother Gerry and a host of extended family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his wife Loretta Ann Lang on December 6th, 2017.

Davy was my best pal and when he left Scotland in November 1987 I was gutted. He went on to pastures new and found success which I was not surprised. These photos are Davy / Pat O'Hare & Me in LA November 1994. The Panda is Davy, County Square in Paisley on the morning of May 16th 1987. This was one of the Best Days of our lives and when we meet we still reminisce of the Day the Saints won the Cup and we were the Panda's. Sorry that you have gone so young but you will always be in my thoughts and were Proud to be a BUDDIE. [ Correct spelling for a Paisley Buddie ] Gone but not forgotten.
